The IP routers HERMES-PRO are flexible remote-access solutions for small and medium offices. HERMES-PRO offers both: ISDN connections as well as highspeed connections via DSL. Its comfortable user-interface (web browser) makes installation and configuration fast and easy.
HERMES-PRO/X comes with a QoS-switch with five 10/100 Mbits ports, a PPPoE-port for external DSL modems and two Ethernet-interfaces. In addition, it has an integrated USB port for configuration, tracing, security and update. The high-performance architecture achieves data transmission rates of 40 Mbit/s.
The router´s modular design allows the integration of additional physical interfaces, for example SDSL, ADSL2 or VDSL. Apart from capacity or bandwidth restrictions, the number of users in the LAN is unlimited. The remote CAPI server provides ISDN-service applications for all users, as for example fax communication, remote access or file transfer.
A bundle of security features protects your network against unauthorized access: the authentication protocols PAP and CHAP, call-back routines and the integrated firewall-functionality. Filter functions based on caller-ID, on TCP- and UDP-ports check all incoming and outgoing data packets. The accounting mechanism provides detailed reports and control of all active connections.
HERMES-PRO/X provides for safe internet communication via IPSec-based virtual private networking (VPN). IPSec handles the authentication of communication partners, encryption and integrity of data. HERMPES-PRO/X supports dynamic IP numbers in combination with dynDNS and thus allows cost-optimized wide-area networking. The router´s VPN configuration is simple and communication with other manufacturers´ devices is excellent (interoperability).
